The Unit — Executive producer Shawn Ryan is still waiting to hear on the fate of The Unit but thinks the series’ chances are good. He told Susan Young, ” We’ve always had to wait until the May upfronts to find out our fate (even after our first season when we were the top rated new show of the year!). I imagine it will be the same again this year.” He added that, if The Unit does return, there will be some exciting changes in store for viewers.

The New Adventures of Old Christine — TV Guide is reporting that ABC has been talking about picking up the Julia Louis-Dreyfus sitcom if CBS decides not to pick it up for season four. Old Christine is currently in its third year and has been doing better in the rating in recent weeks. The sitcom was in a similar situation last year when NBC expressed interest. ABC will soon announce that it will be airing Scrubs next season, following NBC’s cancellation.

Quincy, M.E. — Series star Jack Klugman is suing NBC Universal because he believes they owe him residual profits for the 1976-83 series. Klugman’s copy of the contract, which entitles him to 25% of profits, was lost when his agent died and NBC Universal refuses to supply him with a copy. The studio claims that, though the series continued for eight years and is still running worldwide, the series is $66 million in the red and therefore there are no profits to be shared. Klugman told the Associated Press, “I recently heard that they made $250 million and it’s still on TV in Germany. I don’t want their money. I want my money. I worked my tail off. I got up at four in the morning and stayed at the studio. I did rewrites, I edited.”

The Unit was the best show on the air. I looked forward to it each week as the drama was spine tingling. I hope the network or some network will pick this program up for it shows the bravery of our military and the hazards of defending our country. We need some encouragement that we still have military that are laying their lives on the line to protect our country.
